In an approach that is both compassionate and implacable, he outlines why endings are so important, what internal software keeps many people from accepting them, and how to tell the difference between something that can be fixed and something that ought to go. He acknowledge that endings are often painful, but he makes a persuasive case for their positive power.

- BizEd, The Magazine of Business Schools

A couple of years ago, I had a revelation about my company: We took way too long to kill a bad idea. We let under-performing projects drift for months or even years before we cut our losses and ended the deal. Flipping that one little switch totally changed our perspective on new projects, and it’s saved us a ton of time and trouble. If you’re hesitant to pull the trigger when things obviously aren’t working out, Necessary Endings may be the most important book you read all year.
